I doubt it. People have grown out of 80s wrestling.

Starrcade? No.

Halloween Havoc and/or War Games? Definitely.

There were 2 kinds of "80s wrestling". WWF's gimmicky bullshit wrestling and the NWA's style that made people view it as a "sport" even if they knew deep down it was fake. I think people are craving that old-school NWA style.

I'm all for this. Starrcade has some history behind it, and it gives them another "big" PPV to help boost sales. Armageddon never really does well, however Starrcade might. Halloween Havoc would also blow No Mercy right out of the water in terms of atmosphere.

War Games could very easily be done by the WWE. Take three teams, each representing a brand, and just let them slug it out. Maybe have the Champions of each brand lead the teams, in a variation of the "Champions of Champions" concept. Let's just say they take teams of five (four would probably run smoother, but let's assume five):

RAW:
1. John Cena
2. Triple H
3. Randy Orton
4. King Booker
5. Bobby Lashley

ECW:
1. John Morrison
2. CM Punk
3. Elijah Burke
4. Marcus Cor Von
5. Kevin Thorn

SmackDown!:
1. Batista
2. Rey Mysterio
3. The Great Khali
4. Kane
5. Finlay

I think they would modify the rules a little bit, but I don't really have a problem with that, as I never really got into the old-school rules. I think maybe a concept that is more like chess would suit the match. Participants are eliminated via pinfall or submission, until the leader is defeated. Once the leader is defeated, that team is eliminated in its entirety.

I'd save it for when there's an actual stable war going on. The WWE debut of war games would have been so much better suited for The Invasion, or Evolution vs a face alliance or something.
Right now theres so many interpromotional events and tag matches and shit that the effect wouldn't even be good. It'd be cool, but nothing special. All those guys have had matches in the past few months.
My vote: Definitely use it at a ppv (preferably Survivor Series) but do it when it makes sense.

I'd rather see Halloween Havoc used this year for like Taker's return if at all possible. It'd be a cool event really.

Sad thing is Alienoid came up with like... the best possible teams with the rosters as they are and yet the only team that has any star power is Raw. Not suprising or anything but still... rather sad.

If they could turn Starrcade into a secondary Mania, then I'm all for it. You'd have the Rumble and Mania at the beginning of the year, then you'd have War Games and Starrcade at the end. Atleast there'd be something to look forward to.

Summerslam already is the secondary mania.

Starrcades best bet would be to be a big climactic split brand PPV at the end of the year, kinda as a season finale before the road to wrestlemania. Or the end of fueds and the beginning of new ones and such.
Maybe they could do something special for it annually, like some kind of champion/champion match or something tied into the rumble.

I was thinking something like that. It'd be cool if the winning team each got one title shot in the following year or something.
I'm sure theres something they could do to make it meaningful.
